The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 198

Chapter 198

It was only natural for Jordyn to be close to her father.

Besides that, Tilda also noticed how the other parents reacted while watching their spouses play games with their children.

When things were going well, they laughed and clapped excitedly. If things weren’t going well, they got anxious and cheered them on.

Anyone could tell that these families were together–a united front.

But when it came to Celeste, even though she smiled while playing with her child, something felt different.

It was as if there was a gap between her, her husband, and their daughter–like she wasn’t really part of them.

Then she remembered the last parent–teacher meeting. Celeste’s daughter clearly had a great relationship with that other woman.

So, it made sense that Celeste didn’t quite fit in with her husband and daughter now.

After all, whose child wouldn’t feel distant from them if they were close to the very person who had disrupted their marriage?

Thinking about it, she figured Celeste must be feeling awful inside. But looking at her, she didn’t know how to offer any words of comfort.

Celeste noticed the sympathy and hesitation in her gaze.

She knew Tilda had probably pieced together what had happened. So, she just smiled.

The hardest part of it all was already behind her.

She knew that the only reason she was here today was because Wynn wasn’t available. That was why Trevor and Jordyn had asked her to come instead.

So yes, she did feel a bit like an outsider today.

Just then, Trevor and Jordyn came back.

Jordyn ran up to see the video Celeste had recorded.

Celeste sent it to both her and Trevor. “I sent it to you. You can watch it on your tablet.”

Jordyn beamed. “Okay!”

After three rounds of games, the parent–child activities were finally over.

Jordyn had won two championship trophies. Holding them in her arms, she eagerly asked Trevor to take pictures of her with her prizes.

Trevor took several shots.

Then Jordyn turned to Celeste. “Mom, take some pictures of me and Dad too!”

Celeste nodded. “Alright.”

At her daughter’s request, she took four or five photos of Jordyn and Trevor together.

After sending the photos to Jordyn, Trevor suddenly said, “I’ll take some of you and Jo too.”

“Yes! Mom, come here!”

“Okay.”

Trevor took her phone and snapped some photos of her and Jordyn.

Once they were done, Celeste took back her phone. A moment later, it started ringing.

It was Matthias calling.

“I need to take this,” Celeste said.

Jordyn responded cheerfully, “Okay, Moin!”

Trevor simply nodded. “Mm.”

She talked with Matthias for about ten minutes about work.

When she turned back, she noticed Trevor and Jordyn seemed to be on a video call with someone, She didn’t walk

over.

Instead, she focused on the work files Matthias had just sent her.

A little while later, Jordyn waved her over. “Mom! Come take a big group photo with us, and then we can go for lunch!”

Celeste walked over, and the three of them, along with the other parents, posed for a group picture. Donna also took individual photos of each family.

With that, the school’s parent–child event officially came to an end.

Just as Celeste was about to leave, Trevor went over to retrieve his coat. Then he turned to her and asked, “Where do you want to go for lunch?”

Before Celeste could answer, Jordyn excitedly raised her hand. “I want barbecue! The place we went to last time!”

Trevor pinched her cheek. “That place is too far. You still have class in the afternoon–we won’t make it in time.”

“Oh…” Jordyn thought for a moment, then brightened up again. “Then seafood?”

Trevor didn’t answer right away. Instead, he turned to Celeste. “What do you want?”
